Just pump it back into the ground on one side of the Gulf, then out on the other

Amber Glenn as a custom Magic The Gathering card

Amber Glenn is a big MTG fan. She has mentioned it often and it's even on her ISU bio.
And then the reference is her and Alysa have posted a video playing it.
But also, yeah actually

They also, being mostly a connecting hub, still charged for wifi in the year 2026, which is frankly insulting

Can confirm Rio, Sao Paulo, and Belo Horizonte all board front door only outside their BRT corridors (with an exception for wheelchair 'elevators')

Há tempos noto um fenômeno crescendo que eu chamaria de Nordestelismo (de Orientalismo).
É curioso por ser no mesmo país, e eu acho que de certa forma é uma contra-reação a xenofobia, mas como todo Outro imaginado não deixa de ser exotizante e meio problematico.

‘One does not simply stop a Brazilian with a mustache’ How do you get from Princeton to Manhattan? NJ Transit? Uber? Bike? Angelo Kisil Marino GS chose none of the above and ran the whole way there (68 miles, by the way). 

Angelo is great, insane drive. The Daily Princetonian did a cool feature on this too a couple weeks back

Hahahahah mas pô, é bom mesmo! Especialmente Bewitched :)

People complain that, in a sense, they are being forced to make worse choices, with the same "pre-budgeted" share of income as before. On this, I think they are probably right.

The effect of less affordability is still very negative then, it just manifests differently. Maybe someone has to settle for a crumbling old house, resign themselves to a tiny studio, move cities, or live longer with family. All because what that near-constant share buys them has deteriorated!

As you have correctly noted, the typical share of income spent on housing is remarkably stable at ~30-40%. A big part of that is preferences, that is, how people trade-off housing for other types of consumption. If all rent costs more, you buy "less" of it, be it quality, floorspace or location.

Hey Will! Earnest economist response here.
In essence, affordability is about price vs income. Expenditure shares also include the choice you make of what to buy, which responds precisely to counter your affordability concerns. So they are not a good measure of affordability.

Years later, I still find it such a stupidly dangerous idea.

Makes sense, thank you for the reply

What's the relative role of car tire pollution, do you know?
I ask because I remember seeing some work along the lines of it being bad some time back. And the US did go deep in the direction of huge heavy trucks and SUVs over this period, weight being a crucial factor for tire wear.

For me the core counter is that, just like mathematicians themselves, economists hone their intuition through mathematical examples.
Sure, you might skip a section on a paper, but you're relying on a large accumulated body of knowledge to back you up on that (and some trust on the publishing system)

Pois é, é isso.
Fazendo umas estimativas simples e muito conservadoras, se fosse "resolver" com imposto por exemplo a gente precisava cobrar uns R$10 por bife de boi (de 100g), e uns R$1500/ano no combustivel de um carro.
Garanto que o governo que tentasse fazer isso não durava uma tarde.

I haven't used it, but Overleaf does offer Github integration, which is probably safer/more robust to messes because of the full version control allowing you to just roll back the project.
